£10 a ticket x 1000 = £10,000 less costs then shared 50/50 between the clubs

What attendance do you think we’d get if it was at Belle Vue?
My guess is approx 5000 with a ticket price of say £16 = £80,000 less costs then shared 50/50

I’m going to be bold here, not arrogant but maybe tempting fate, they won’t beat us whether it’s played at Siddal or Belle Vue so why not make some money but more importantly give their players a great experience playing in front of a big crowd in a nice stadium.

Any way you look at it the decision to play at Siddal just doesn’t make sense

5000 dream on against an amateur club switching a tie

What a stupid comment have you ever done that its not great viewing at the best of time your low down for a start people will keep been in front of you cos its going to be packed

Good on Siddal for wanting to stage the game. They must be buzzing about pulling a championship club at home. If the powers that be deem it to be safe then crack on. Been to Siddal loads and you can see why they are one of the best amateur clubs in the country. Don't get all the negativity towards them. Especially when our ground has been hanging on by a thread for ages. If the RFL deems it safe then all parties involved should be helping Siddal make it happen. It's a fantastic opportunity for a grassroots club to showcase themselves and make a few quid too.

Have to agree, more like 3,000 at 10 quid entry.

There is no negativity towards them. Just concerns over viewing, safety, ticket availability, parking and provisions. These are all valid questions for supporters who want to go support their team.

It’s been deemed acceptable to meet these demands (well perhaps not demand if ticketing is limited). If it does and people have a great day out that’s brilliant and justifies the decision but if not and there’s issues it will look like a poor decision and something to learn from.

And thats one of my main points it doesnt affect me i and i wouldnt be going anyway but there should be opportunity for everyone to attend

Re: Siddal : Fri Feb 02, 2024 10:16 am  

Seems Siddals 8am ticket announcement was to say that tickets are available from Siddals Clubhouse doesnt mention anything for tickets for Wakefield so seemingly if you want to go you have to go to Siddal to purchase tickets.
Im sure the club may have some news to put out later regarding ticketing, but thats the stance so far
